Favorite Psalms

Here are two of my favorite Psalms, Psalms 23 and 121.

Psalm 23

 ¹The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

 ²He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

 ³He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

 ⁴Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

 ⁵Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

 ⁶Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Psalm 121

 ¹I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
 ²My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.
 ³He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
 ⁴Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
 ⁵The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
 ⁶The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
 ⁷The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
 ⁸The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

These are two great Psalms; I trust you will be blessed by reading them!

It was such a beautiful morning, the sun was shining bright, O  so refreshing after a long  sleepless night. My wife said, honey let's go for a drive, it's such a lovely day. I said, wait until I crab my hat and we will be on our way. We drove up over the ridge all covered with maple and birch and down route 612, when we had to come to a stop and let ten beautiful deer cross the road. That made my day, getting out in the sun seeing God's great creation, all the beauty round about, made me want to sing and made me want to shout.
